RV AWNING REPAIRToday we will show you how to splice an awning using the 8' MX57.Our client is Leo and he called from just around the corner with a broken awning so we though it would make a great case study to demonstrate just how easy it is to repair a broken awning roller tube using the MX57.We hope you enjoy this short video. For additional information on tightening the tention spring be sure to watch our other videos (found on www.mx57.com) because that part is very dangerous and should only be done by an experienced, trained professional.Many shops can install the MX57 for you, all you need to do is ask. It normally takes about 1 to 2 hours and in Leo's case he called around and had estimates of over $800 to replace his broken awning roller tube.The worst part is...he would have ended up with the same tube he started with. This means he would only be one good rain away from having a broken awning again. Most awnings can only hold up to a couple hundred pounds of water. When you install the MX57, your awning roller tube will not break even up to 1000 lbs of weight. Once you install the MX57, your awning will not break, bend, or bow.Please feel free to visit us on our website or call us for additional informaiton. When you call ask for CJ who is the inventor and patent holder for the MX57. We look forward to answering any of your questions.You can reach us at Monday - Friday 9a -5p Eastern5510 Carmack Road Tampa, FL 33610 (813) 622-7796 Toll free: 1-800-246-4268 Fax (813)623-5376

RV Awning Repair Video | Status Update

We're sorry folks, that it's taking just a few extra days to post the video but we just wanted to let everyone know that it will be uploaded very soon.

We want to let you know that we've seen a sneak preview of the video and we just know you'll really enjoy it. We can't wait to share it with you.

Our video guys are working very hard and in just a few more days we'll have our latest video project uploaded to the website.

For those who are new to our site...Last week we filmed the repair of a 20' awning tube that broke approximately in the center (we've seen many awnings break like this over our 30 years in the business).

We cleaned up the ends by sawing off the damaged ends, then inserted the 96" MX57 partially into one side, slid over a brand new middle section (approximately 2' to replace the portion that we had cut out), riveted the first and middle parts together, then attached the other end, riveted it to the MX57, attached the vinyl and re-attached the repaired roller tube to the camper.

When we finished installing the awning, we demonstrated how the awning functions perfectly as it did before the accident, just as if the break had never occurred.

So until we have the video complete...that's the jest of the story. Thanks for visiting us and if you're thinking of ordering or have any questions, please don't hesitate to give us a call (813) 622-7796 Toll free: 1-800-246-4268. Ask for CJ

More Pics from Leo's Broken Awning Project Today


RV Awning Roller Tube Repair ( Slice & Dice with MX57)







Yesterday we met up with Leo Warren, who like many RV enthusiast, spends a few warm summer months in Florida away from his cold northern home. Leo is what some call a "snow-bird". Florida brings a brief retreat from living deep in the Adirondack Mountains of up state New York.

Leo explained to us that upon returning to Florida this year, he made a quick trip into town and while he was out, the rain came down. Florida is beautiful and while most of the time sunny, unpredictable rain storms such as the one that Leo experienced that day... tends to happen often, especially during the summer months.

I wish that was all there was to the story but unfortunately as a result of the rain storm, Leo's RV awning suffering serious damage. He knew to lower one corner of his RV to help aid in the removal of rain water but the rain was just coming down too fast for this common "tilted" canopy method to do the trick.

When we arrived at Leo's property, he had already removed the canopy from his RV and his awning roller tube was clearly broken into two parts. He told us that after checking into the matter because he had the longer 20' roller tube the cost combined with a new canopy would run him between $800 and $1500 to repair. And this was if he did all of the work himself.

We loaded up his broken awning roller tube and headed back to our shop. Today we measured approximately one foot from the break on both sides of the tube and using a chop saw we cut the damaged portion removing approximately one foot from both ends of the tube.


We then filed the ends of the newly cut tube ends, inserted an MX57 into one end of the awning roller, riveted the mx57 to the roller, slid over our replacement tube part (2' section of brand new tubing), and riveted it to the MX57. This took us about 10 minutes to complete.

We are ready to begin re-attaching the vinyl.

We've added a few photos to our home page of this slice and dice repair. We shot video of the experience and just as soon as we receive the video back from our media company, we intend to post it here on our site. Please check back soon for the new video.

Thanks for tuning into the MX57 and we look forward to hearing from you. If you have any questions about how the MX57 can assist you in repairing, replacing or just simply improving your current RV Awning roller tube please feel free to call or email us any time.

Sincerely,
CJ - Megax57.com

RV AWNING REPAIR

RV AWNING REPAIR

Watch as we crank up the pressure on our awning roller to over 1000 lbs. We have already inserted the mx57 into the tube and you can watch a video of how this is done by going to http:www.mx57.com/video-2

These tubes bend & break all of the time mainly due to the pressure of rain water. This is video demonstrates how you can avoid having this done to you.

If you don't feel comfortable installing the mx57 yourself you can take it to just about any experienced rv repair company and have them install it for you.

If you have a broken rv awning then you defintly should not replace your awning tube without first installing the mx57 to protect your investment.

Please feel free to visit us on our website or call us for additional informaiton. When you call ask for CJ who is the inventor and patent holder for the MX57. We look forward to answering any of your questions.

You can reach us at Monday - Friday 9a -5p Eastern

How to RV Awning Repair & Prevention

RV AWNING REPAIR  
Dealing with Canopy Tube Problems & How to Repair

RV Awnings are notorious for having problematic issues with the weight load of rain water resulting in damage to the front cylinder to which the canopy is attached.

The standard factory shipped cylinders are not designed to withstand more than a couple of hundred pounds.

When deployed, the awning must remain taut in order to properly displace rain water. In order for this to happen, the awning is situated on a slight angle from the point of attachment (to the building or vehicle). However one gallon of water weighs  approximately 8.35 lbs. It doesn't take long to accumulate several hundred pounds of water and therein lies the problem. The roller tube (the cylinder to which the canopy is attached) begins to bow slightly and the canopy creates a bowl of water that becomes trapped between the roller tube and the vehicle (or building). Once this happens the weight (if the rain continues) will increase as additional water is trapped and eventually the tube will break.  

To avoid the above scenario we strongly recommend you have the MX57 installed. We have video that will soon be added to our website showing it's amazing strength. We have torqued the tube with strong chains and come alongs to over 1000lbs and the tube still did not bow, bend or break.  When you add the MegaX57 to your awning the awing canopy will remain taut and the rain water will naturally and safely run off the awing as it was intended. No more having to bend one side of your awing and no more worrying about being away from your RV in the event of a rain storm.

The MegaX57 was invented by experienced rv master repair technician CJ Migues of RV Service based in Tampa, FL. CJ has been in the RV repair and service industry for over 30 years and is considered by many, one of the foremost RV repair experts alive today. His industry experience and knowledge is extensive. CJ and his company has repaired just about every type of RV awing in existence. Feel free to contact CJ personally if you have any questions regarding the instilation of the MegaX57 and we hope you enjoy the demonstration video as CJ shows just how to repair an rv awning (awing tube) and how to install the MX57 into any RV cylinder
